Chapter 3
"Harry?" Hermione looked bewildered.

"Hermione what are you doing up?" Harry asked.

"Well I heard a big thump and I came down to invesigate. Wait what are you doing here? I thought you were in Romania." Hermione looked with a confused look on her face.

"I, ummm, was let off early. For Christmas." Harry lied.

"Well how did you get here so fast?" Hermione jestured for him to sit down.

"I rode on broomstick." Harry answered, "I kind of crashed through the window." Hermione looked behind her to see glass clustered over the stone floor.

"Well are you alright?" Hermione looked at him with care.

"I think I am fine." Harry looked at her with a smile. Hermione started to feel uncomfortable.

"Harry, stop looking at me that way." Hermione said while moving farther away from Harry.

"Sorry I just relized how pretty you are." Harry said moving closer.

"Harry what are you doing?" Hermione said scared.

"Hermione I have to tell you something." Harry admitted.

"Well what?" Hermione asked she had jumped off the coach.

"Hermione I think you are beautiful." Harry said staring plainly at her.

"Harry stop it your scaring me." Hermione said bumping into some things that were on the table.

"Hermione run away with me. Run far far away..." Harry said

"Ron!!!!" Hermione belted out.

Ron woke up with a startle.

"Harry stop it. Let go. Don't touch me. Ron...." Hermione screamed.

"Harry, get off of her!" Ron ran down the stairs and grabed Harry off of her,"Harry what were you thinking?"

"Get off of me...." Harry punched Ron in the mouth.

"Ron!" Hermione yelled. Ron was bleeding from his lip.

"Harry what has gotten in you?" Ron asked backing away. Harry's eyes grew wide and then he passed out.

"Harry?" Ron asked, "Harry speak to me!" Harry just laid there his eyes wide staring at the ceiling.

Then sudenlly Harry spit up blood, and stood up and then his flesh disinigrated. Then Ron saw Hedwig swoop in the broken window with a letter attached to her beak. Ron read it out loud,

Ron and Hermione-
Happy Christmas! Sorry if Hedwig comes a little early but I wanted to send her off as early as possible with the terriable weather we have been having. I put a picture of me with charlie and a Norweign Ridge-back. Hope you like it.
-Harry

"If that wasn't the real harry then who was--" Ron stopped he looked at hermione who was shivering in the

corner, "Voldermort." Ron admitted.

"Hermione..." Ron walked over to Hermione who looked shocked, "Are you okay?"

"I, I, I think so." Hermione stuttered, "What just happened Ron?"

"I don't know you tell me." Ron sat down beside her.

"Well I heard a big crash down here and then I saw Harry and he started to tell me that I was pretty..." Hermione started, "Oh Ron."

"Shhh. Its alright everything will be fine. Promise." Ron looked into her wet blue eyes and at that moment Ron

leaned in and they shared a passionate, loving kiss. Hermione kissed back. They sat in that positstion for a long

time until Hermione pulled away, breathing hard.

"Ron, I think this is the perfect time to give you my Christmas present." Hermione ran up the stairs and got Ron his present.

"Here." Hermione smiled. Ron read the letter over and over in his head, then he turned over and looked at her.

"Thank you." Ron said, then he leaned in and kissed her on the lips. She hugged him and they stayed there lying together.
